I believe that our bodies hold the memory of our defenses, the wisdom of our experiences, and an innate capacity to heal.
Putting your own well-being first can feel almost impossible. Maybe your emotions are always bubbling under the surface or your body is holding on to tension that won’t let go. Life starts to feel like a nonstop juggling act, leaving you stretched thin, disconnected, and wondering if you’re ever “enough.” But it doesn’t have to stay that way — there’s space to breathe, exhale, and feel supported.
Working with me means having a steady, compassionate partner by your side. Even one dedicated hour a week can be a powerful act of self-care, easing stress stored in the body as tension or pain. Together, we’ll help your nervous system shift from survival mode to safety, balance, and calm.
I’m Heidi Malnar — a trauma-informed PLPC, and yoga instructor, RYT 200. I blend talk therapy with mindfulness and somatic practices to help you connect your mind and body, build self-regulation skills, and live with more authenticity and ease. If you’re ready for that next step, let’s set up a free 15-minute consultation — I’d love to meet you!
